NREM Undergraduate Work/Study Internship at Makaʻalamihi Gardens in Kaneʻohe

Background:
Makaʻalamihi Gardens are located on 6 acres of property in the middle of the Kapunahala subdivision in Kaneʻohe, Hawaiʻi. This property has been in the family of Dr. Carl Evensen, former chair of the NREM Department, since 1897. Dr. Evensen’s grandfather, himself a horticulturist with UH Manoa, operated a nursery on the land and Carl grew up gardening on the site. Gerrit Evensen, Carl’s son, was a horticulturist as well and planted many unusual fruit trees and other flora throughout the grounds before he passed away in 2017. It was Gerrit’s dream to create a learning garden at Maka’alamihi and, since 2018 Carl and his wife, Stacy, have devoted their energies to furthering Gerrit’s vision. Specifically, it is their intent to become an accredited Public Garden as a way of honoring their son and his legacy.

Internship Scope of Work:
To qualify as a Public Garden with the American Public Gardens Association, one must document and maintain collections of plants for the purpose of public education and enjoyment. The work of the student intern will be to assist the Evensens as they continue to develop and manage their grounds as a Public Garden space. This will include using ecological landscape design methods to select appropriate species for planting, laying out pathways to foster access to garden spaces, periodic pruning, mulching, fertilizing and harvesting of the agroforest and other planted sections of the gardens. On the last Saturday of every month interested community members join in to help manage the grounds at Maka’alamihi Gardens. At each workday Dr. Evensen conducts a mini-workshop on various aspects of gardening and agroforest management. The student intern will be invited to join these workdays and assist in the mini-workshop as appropriate. Periodic public tours are also occasionally offered, and the student intern will be welcome to join these tours as well.

Timeframe:
The Evensens are flexible and will work with the student intern to set a mutually acceptable schedule.

Please contact Dr. Carl Evensen if you are interested (EvensenC@ctahr.hawaii.edu​)

MBBE 11-Month Graduate Research Assistantship

A graduate research opportunity for doctoral research is available at the Department of Molecular Biosciences and Bioengineering, University of Hawaii at Manoa under Dr. Qing X. Li. The qualified GA candidate will study pesticide fate and leachability using field data and suitable predictive models. Pesticides are essential for agriculture production, but their uses have become an environmental concern due to their potential adverse effects. A critical need is to use effective, safe and non-leachable pesticides in Hawaii to manage pests, which requires evaluation of leaching potential of new pesticides submitted for registration and review of groundwater data of pesticide registered. This research project will focus on environmental pollutant fate and transport modeling as a tool to perform such evaluation. The project provides opportunities to collaborate with pesticide industry and government agencies.

The participant will be potentially involved in the following research activities:

1. Review available pesticide predictive models and data of new pesticides submitted for registration in Hawaii
2. Compare and evaluate those models for the transport and transformation of pesticides in the environment
3. Enhance/apply state of the science for pesticides fate, transport and transformation modeling to address environmental concerns.
4. Using GIS and hydrological and water quality modeling skills to seek and evaluate effective mitigation practices for minimizing potential water quality concerns

Minimum Qualifications: B.S. in Agricultural and Biosystem Engineering, Hydrology, Geography, Geology, Chemistry, Earth and Geosciences, Civil and Environmental Engineering and Mathematics and Statistics and/or M.S. in those relative equivalent fields.

Desirable Qualifications: knowledge and understanding of GIS and hydrological modeling.

Graduate Research Assistant Opportunity (MS or PhD) in Du Lab

Du Lab (http://www2.hawaii.edu/~duz/) of the Department of Molecular Biosciences and Bioengineering (MBBE, CTAHR, UHM) is recruiting a graduate student for bioengineering on designing, manufacturing, and testing photobioreactors for photosynthetic organisms such as microalgae and cyanobacteria. Microalgae research is a booming field. Microalgae and their concomitant derivatives are an increasingly promising source for sustainable materials and marketable bioproducts. Microalgae has a particular utility as a food and feed resource and nutraceutical supplement with regard to the provision of fatty acids, β-carotene, and astaxanthin, to name a few. A growing number of studies indicate that Hawaiian algal species are useful in animal and human consumption. In addition, over 70% of the oxygen in the atmosphere is produced by marine plants, in which algae contribute a significant part. They also can be employed as a remediating agent for other environmental events such as greenhouse gas emissions, changes in ocean acidity, and purification of runoff.

Although microalgae are vital to the biotech and ecology communities, the research on microalgae is restricted by the costly facilities and instruments. The propagation of algae at the laboratory scale is facilitated through reaction processes contained within a bioreactor unit, emulating natural environmental conditions to manage growth patterns. The current commercial devices are cost-prohibitive, small in capacity, and incomprehensive with regard to function for specific strains of algae. Through the fabrication of a custom bioreactor with a range of capabilities to meet the demands of the algal growth of various species, our design will become an essential tool for microalgae research globally. It can also promote local algae research and industry, taking advantage of the abundant tropical resources in Hawaii. The student will design and assemble the environmental photobioreactors that can control various environmental factors such as light intensity, temperature, and air supply. 

Minimum qualifications:
Bioengineering skills: CAD design; circuit board design and modification; basic computer programming; Good communication and writing skills in English

Desirable qualifications:
Knowledge of molecular biology and biochemistry; Cell culturing; Microscopy

Salary: $22,140 yr/$1845 mo plus health benefits

(Est) Start Date/Term: Jan 7, 2022

To apply, please send your CV and names & contacts for three professional references to Dr. Zhi-Yan (Rock) Du, duz@hawaii.edu
